: Osteoarthritis leads to painful joints, disability, restriction of ambulation, and reduces the person's ability to perform activities of daily living. Pain is one of the major symptoms of osteoarthritis. Some patients presented with severe pain while some with severe deformity. : Patients presenting with complaints of knee pain were screened. Written consent was taken from the patient. Radiographic data was collected and these patients were also shown the visual analogue scale (VAS) and asked to rate their pain. Further, the weight-bearing radiographs of both knees of patients in anteroposterior, lateral, and skyline views were also taken. The radiographs were evaluated using the Kellgren-Lawrence classification to determine the grade of osteoarthritis. : For this study, radiographs of 116 patients (48 males (42%), 68 females (58%)) with knee OA who were eligible were included. The prevalence of the disease was highest among patients in the age group 51-60 years. The prevalence of bilateral knee osteoarthritis was observed in 98 patients (86.2%) and that of unilateral in 16 patients (13.8%). The prevalence of associated pain was comparatively higher in females than in males. : This study found there is no significant correlation between VAS pain score and the severity of radiological grading. Hence treatment should be tailored according to symptoms and not just the X-ray findings.
骨关节炎会导致关节疼痛、残疾、行走受限,并降低患者进行日常生活活动的能力。疼痛是骨关节炎的主要症状之一。一些患者表现出严重疼痛,而另一些则有严重畸形。:对主诉膝关节疼痛的患者进行筛查。获得了患者的书面同意。收集了影像学数据,并向这些患者展示了视觉模拟评分量表(VAS),并要求他们对自己的疼痛进行评分。此外,还拍摄了患者双膝的负重前后位、侧位和天际线位X线片。使用凯尔格伦-劳伦斯分类法对X线片进行评估,以确定骨关节炎的分级。:本研究纳入了116例符合条件的膝关节骨关节炎患者的X线片(48例男性(42%),68例女性(58%))。该疾病的患病率在51-60岁年龄组的患者中最高。观察到98例患者(86.2%)患有双侧膝关节骨关节炎,16例患者(13.8%)患有单侧膝关节骨关节炎。女性相关疼痛的患病率相对高于男性。:本研究发现VAS疼痛评分与放射学分级的严重程度之间没有显著相关性。因此,治疗应根据症状进行调整,而不仅仅依据X线检查结果。
